Singaporean investment capital in Vietnam is present in various sectors, from manufacturing and logistics to industrial real estate.
As international investors pay increasing attention to infrastructure quality, the combination of local advantages and international development standards becomes a noteworthy factor. In this context, KTG Industrial serves as a prime example of strategic cooperation between Vietnam and Singapore.
BKIM – A Joint Venture Between Two Visions
KTG Industrial is an industrial real estate brand developed by BKIM — a joint venture between Khai Toan Group (Vietnam) and Boustead Projects (Singapore). Each side brings its own unique strength, thereby complementing one another throughout the industrial real estate development process.
Khai Toan Group – Over 30 Years of Local Foundation
Starting in 1994 with the distribution of electrical and lighting equipment, Khai Toan Group (KTG) has gradually expanded its scale to become a multi-sector enterprise in Vietnam.
After more than three decades of development, KTG currently operates in various fields such as residential electrical equipment, home appliances, industrial real estate, hospitality real estate, renewable energy, building materials, and stationery.
Notably, in the industrial real estate sector, KTG possesses a key advantage from its network of relationships with developers and local authorities, alongside a deep understanding of the Vietnamese market gained through operating experience across multiple industries. Consequently, the enterprise holds a favorable foundation to connect stakeholders and execute projects tailored to actual market demand.
Mr. Dang Trong Ngon, Chairman of KTG Group, shared, “Over the past three decades, we have dedicated our passion and efforts toward building a strong, resilient business community and society. We believe that only through close cooperation and mutual trust can we achieve great success.”

Boustead Projects – Singapore Standards, International Experience
With over 20 years of pioneering in industrial design-build, Boustead Projects ranks among CONQUAS’s Top 100 Contractors of All Time.
Going beyond its domestic market, Boustead Projects has executed more than 160 industrial and logistics projects across 4 countries, totaling 2.1 billion USD in value.
At the same time, the enterprise leads the private sector in Green Mark Platinum-certified projects. Consequently, international experience and green building development capabilities form a key component of BKIM joint venture’s strengths.
KTG Industrial – Result of a Sustainable Partnership Model
Built on the foundation of the BKIM joint venture, KTG Industrial was established with the vision of developing high-quality industrial infrastructure to serve the increasingly diverse needs of domestic and foreign enterprises. This model combines Khai Toan’s market understanding with the technical capabilities and international expertise of Boustead Projects.
As a result, KTG Industrial can capture the specific characteristics of the Vietnamese market while applying advanced development standards to every project. The company currently holds projects in Dong Nai and Bac Ninh, with a focus on ESG criteria in development.
Among these, KTG Industrial VSIP Bac Ninh II Phase 1 achieved LEED Gold certification, demonstrating its commitment to investing in sustainable industrial infrastructure.

KTG Industrial’s portfolio includes ready-built factories and warehouses, built-to-suit factories, and support services for businesses throughout their operations.
Ready-built Factories and Warehouses
KTG Industrial’s ready-built factory and warehouse projects are developed in key industrial zones with convenient connectivity to transportation networks as well as major production and consumption hubs. From there, businesses can quickly access airports, seaports, and key markets such as Ho Chi Minh City, Dong Nai, Binh Duong, Bac Ninh, Ha Noi, Hung Yen, Hai Phong, and Thai Nguyen.
Beyond location, construction quality is also a key priority. Factories are built to international standards for quality and safety, while incorporating sustainable development solutions such as wastewater treatment systems and solar power.
With multiple locations ready for lease, KTG Industrial factories and warehouses can fulfill diverse operational needs. The project network is positioned near airports, international seaports, and major transport hubs, thereby shortening freight connectivity time and broadening market reach.

Built-to-suit
Beyond offering ready-built facilities, KTG Industrial also implements the Built-to-suit model, where buildings are designed and constructed according to the specific requirements of each enterprise. This approach helps optimize floor area and functional utility while addressing the operational nuances of individual manufacturing sectors.
From the initial stages, KTG Industrial collaborates with clients to identify requirements, select suitable land plots, formulate budgets, and assess project feasibility. Subsequently, the team executes line items ranging from spatial planning and architecture to structural engineering, mechanical and electrical systems, and tailored technical specifications.
Throughout construction, quality, timeline, and safety are rigorously controlled under international standards. Finally, the project is delivered on a turnkey basis, allowing enterprises to take over a fully completed facility and promptly initiate operations.
Support Services
For businesses, securing a manufacturing location is only the first step. Therefore, KTG Industrial provides additional support services to streamline the market entry and operational journey for investors in Vietnam.
These services encompass market and investment advisory, supplier networking, assistance with ERC, IRC, and visa procedures, interior design, facility installation, as well as connections to recruitment, logistics, accounting, tax, and IT services.
Evaluating the partnership experience, Mr. Ricardo Gomes, Plant Operations Manager at Framas, stated, “KTG Industrial was very proactive, responsive, and understood our needs while addressing our requests. We found in KTG Industrial the right partners to develop our new location. We hope this partnership continues for a long time.”
Conclusion
Built on the collaborative foundation between Khai Toan Group and Boustead Projects, KTG Industrial delivers an industrial real estate development model combining local Vietnamese market insight with international standards. Beyond providing ready-built factories and warehouses, the enterprise fulfills custom requirements through its Built-to-suit model and accompanies FDI investors across multiple operational phases.
With a focus on sustainable development, advantageous locations, and a diverse suite of support services, KTG Industrial is steadily establishing itself as a prominent choice for enterprises seeking manufacturing infrastructure in Vietnam.
